Chapter 12

Gloria took the scrap of paper, which appeared to be a chunk of a brown paper lunch sack. “I packed a small lunch for Billy Zortski while you were unloading the golf cart,” she confessed. “I saw him lurking in the bushes and thought he might be hungry.”

“Where did you all sneak off to today?” Liz appeared from around the corner of the camper. “We thought maybe you moved out ‘til we noticed the golf cart.” She patted the hood. “This looks like an EZ GO RXV. This beauty has a top speed of twenty five miles per hour but sucks the juice.”

Frances, who had followed Liz over, ran the palm of her hand across the canopy. “Good thing you got the cover. You’ll need it during the day.” She hopped onto the bench seat in the back. “This has one has the rear bench seats. You got an upgraded version.”

“I’ll take you girls for a spin tomorrow,” Gloria promised. “Right now, I’m starving.”

“Would you like to eat at a restaurant?” Paul asked but he hoped not. It had been a long day.

“Why don’t we order pizza and have it delivered?” Liz suggested.

“Great idea,” Gloria said. Pizza sounded good although they had eaten the pie iron pizzas the night before.

Paul reached inside the camper, grabbed a note pad and jotted down the girls’ orders. Liz offered to place the order since her cell phone was the only one with decent reception.

After Liz placed the order, she ran over to their camper to grab a bottle of Diet Coke and some snack crackers to munch on while they waited.

“What is on the agenda tomorrow?” Frances asked.

Paul gave his bride a quick glance. “I had hoped to do a little fishing. Maybe sneak out before daybreak while the fish are biting.” They had seen a few small fishing boats next to the kayaks the previous day.

He pointed to the storage unit under the camper window. “I was rummaging around in there earlier and found a few fishing poles and nets inside.”

Gloria had gone fishing years ago with her first husband, James, and quickly decided it was boring as all get out. Paul, remembering his wife telling him she wasn’t a fishing fanatic, let her “off the hook.”

“You can sleep in if you want. After I get back, we can head to Daytona Beach to the boardwalk, maybe do a little shopping and have lunch at one of the oceanfront restaurants,” Paul bargained.

That was right up Gloria’s alley and she quickly nodded her head. “It sounds wonderful.” In the back of her mind, sleeping in sounded good, but what she really wanted to do was initiate a preliminary fact finding mission…poke around the burned out camper, maybe talk to
